Coaching Programs

Executive Development Coaching Program

Employee engagement starts at the top!

The opportunity for a company to fast forward in its results is directly related to the ability of the executive team to pivot quickly with change, make aligned decisions and resist the tug of relying on the past to predict the future. We are working in a time where the solutions are found in new and different ways- the past is one aspect to be factored in to strategic planning.

This program is for:

  • Newly promoted executives
  • Increasing the effectiveness of established executives
  • An executive team that is working towards aligned change in thinking, decision making and strategic direction

"What an amazing day! I wanted to personally say Thank-you for your time and effort and, equally as important, your authenticity in your presentation. The topic of generations isn't new, but it's rarely, if ever, explained in such a diplomatic, but on-point fashion."

"Cheryl your keynote on the generational impact on our industry was right on target! I had many audience members come up to me and say that your keynote was relevant, insightful and humorous. Our executive team loved you too! On behalf of the McDonalds Restaurant W.O.N/WLN conference and the 1000 attendees- Thank- you!!"

Hi Cheryl:

On behalf of Vertex Business Services and the E-CIS Planning Committee, thank you for being a part of our annual customer event.

We definitely got the WOW feeling from our customers after your interaction with them. They loved the fact that you personally handed them a signed copy of your book – The Control Freak Revolution.. Throughout the week, I was constantly hearing “hey are you Gen Xing right now or Booming?” They really got what you were talking about!

And, we are even trying to think of a way we could do our surveys on Twitter!

Several indicated they were sure they now knew what “type of control freak their spouse was”.

Cheryl, your topic was so pertinent for the times and definitely well received to our customers and staff.

My best to you and I hope our paths cross again.

"Cheryl your presentations for our CSNM conference were incredible. First you had us reeling with your generation's research, technological savvy and the way we "zoomers" have to adapt in order to attract and retain the Gen Y's. Your segment with the directors set the tone for the entire conference THEN you closed our conference with your keynote "Be A Positive Control Freak" and you rocked the house! Really valuable insights on how we can each take personal accountability in order to create success- everyone was still talking about it on the post conference boat cruise.
Thank-you!

H Truber,
President CSNM 2009-2010

 

"Cheryl, thank you very much for your outstanding performance at our annual global conference. You were really able to tap into the needs of each member of the audience.

An excellent event overall and you were clearly one of the highlights."

Cheryl,
“Just wanted to drop you a line and thank you again for today. Everyone said how much they took away from the workshop today and that they really enjoyed it. Our director Jeff wanted to add: “I want to add my thanks as well. You would have smiled the last two days we related many examples on how our sensitivity to generational differences in addition to personality types will help improve our one on one team communications.”

“The keynote delivered by Cheryl Cran at our recent Regional Management Council meeting was fantastic and the perfect ending to our 2-day meeting focused on Leadership! Participants left feeling inspired to achieve results and took with them many relevant tips in order to do so. The way that she tied in advice for leading the 4 generations in the workplace was outstanding and greatly increased awareness and understanding of generational differences - a very current and relevant topic in any workplace. Cheryl is a dynamic speaker who incorporates humor and meaningful stories and exercises to provoke discussion and fully engage her audience. The time and care that Cheryl put into understanding our environment and tailoring her delivery to our audience was very evident and appreciated. I would highly recommend her to groups/individuals (of any generation) seeking to enhance their leadership potential!"
